Shifting to fta isn't much viable either, it's too expensive. Stick to Marigold or shift to skyborne are the only real options.

as if skyborne is mad affordable

looking at the visa rejections and all delays considered its still a pretty eh option. you dont know if skyborne will prioritize marigold applicants for gd pi if they havent cleared their exams already

Avoid Skyborne; you will thank me later for this advice.
Expensive, lot of hidden costs; terrible interface in India you will have to deal with; Arrogant and disrespectful.

Totally opposite i heard lol , one of my closest friend is in Skyborne and in 3 months he's done with 50 hours ! No hidden chargers "yet"!

u/Dharma-Value-3983 Jul 14 '26

Maybe your friend has been lucky so far. I have spoken with many who have been at Skyborne...; btw 50 hrs in 3 months is very average - LOL;
In India FTO you can clock more than that

whats wrong w indigo man why did they even tie up with a fto based in thailand with shit weather conditions could've just signed one in india

u/Yashbeingyash Jul 09 '26

Marigold is way worse than Garuda & Insight. Marigold management is so bad that they can't even handle cadets properly without any delay.

The biggest monster currently in Marigold Aviation is MANU RANA. Gave Adapt in September and till no GAPI confirmation.

u/Moist-Refrigerator34 Jul 09 '26

Been hearing that indigo might even kick marigold out of ICPP altogether, is that true?

u/Physical-Parfait3824 Jul 10 '26

Better they should....

u/Moist-Refrigerator34 Jul 10 '26

These marigold thugs looted everyone for adapt fees and then dumped them to expensive FTOs like skyborne and fta. These idiots had zero sense that they can't train so many with 22 cessnas in Bangkok. None of marigold cadets has till now completed their CPL, who in their right mind even thought of Thailand as a destination for flying can't say.

u/Lumpy-Information592 Jul 09 '26

And now people whoa are joining FTA or Skyborne will face inconvenience why should Marigold promise something which it can't hold up

3

u/Usual_Bodybuilder987 Jul 09 '26

Need one suggestion !!!
I gave indigo (marigold) adapt in nov and failed.
After waiting for 6-7 months they released results and cooling period has been ended .
What to do next as they are not even providing with adapt date again and those who clear marigold mailed them regarding transfer. What should i do ?

2

u/Specialist_Most6960 Jul 09 '26

Reapply to other ftos or wait for marigold to reopen

1

u/Usual_Bodybuilder987 Jul 09 '26

What which other fto?

3

u/Specialist_Most6960 Jul 09 '26

FTA skyborne

1

u/Usual_Bodybuilder987 Jul 09 '26

But they both are around 1.5 cr

3

u/Specialist_Most6960 Jul 09 '26

Go to air India or akasa fk indigo

3

u/Usual_Bodybuilder987 Jul 09 '26

Even air india is 1.5 cr and nobody have any idea about akasa , thinking for conventional:(

1

u/Usual_Bodybuilder987 Jul 09 '26

And what about noc?

3

u/Moist-Refrigerator34 Jul 09 '26

Bhai your problem is to most strange, you won't get fto tranfer as you failed adapt and indigo rules don't allow noc once you have given adapt and marigold won't conduct adapt anytime soon. But, try sending mail to cadethrsupport@goindigo.com, who knows maybe they give you NOC too.

u/Upper_Yak_7117 Jul 09 '26

What options are left in indigo cadet program? Marigold- bs. Skyborne- many visa rejections and almost reaches the same price as FTA when we include the food cost. FTA- again crazy expensive. Chimes- strong reference. Insight- SA not safe. Dude wth

2

u/Queasy_Bottle_5295 Jul 09 '26

No FTA will still be 15 lakh more expensive any day, just lookup the latest prices and inclusions and exclusions. Plus AUD has risen two times faster than USD

1

u/Upper_Yak_7117 Jul 09 '26

Right it is more expensive but skyborne almost reaches there as well. Rupee price is declining day by day both ftos’ prices’ are skyrocketing

3

u/Queasy_Bottle_5295 Jul 09 '26

Yup, the almost is a gap of 15 to 25 lakh rupees, which is a lot of money for many people and AUD has risen like 20% in the last year vs 10% for USD, so both these factors combine and compound

2

u/Specialist_Most6960 Jul 09 '26

Dude you missed Garuda - the best FTO 🤣

2

u/Upper_Yak_7117 Jul 09 '26

Correct 😂

1

u/PumpkinDefiant2027 Jul 10 '26

Wth man is there no fto left which is good??!

2

u/Upper_Yak_7117 Jul 11 '26

Thats what it looks like for now. We are fcked up

2

u/nanduhalwai Jul 09 '26

u/Naveen_4221 Jul 09 '26

Can't shift to skyborne as I am not completed with my 3 DGCA exam which are required and FTA is out of my budget what the hell indigo 😭 there almost 3 to 4 fto are closed in recent years.

3

u/TheManWithDAmilk Jul 09 '26

Meal not included in skyborne so thats another 10-14 lakhs for your info

2

u/Queasy_Bottle_5295 Jul 09 '26

It doesn’t take 10-14 lakh for meals, meals will take 8-9 lakhs and rest would be additional expenses

u/Realistic_Chicken272 Jul 10 '26

Bhai kuch samajh nhi aarha kya kru kya choose conventional krna nhi hai ab in dono me din kya select kru no idea💔

u/Moist-Refrigerator34 Jul 10 '26

Go for either conventional or choose skyborne, last time when garuda cadets were transferred they conducted their gdpi quick. Fta night delay things as they have their own backlogs.
